"Why does it feel different from the Wang family's secret medicine?" Haftan took out a secret medicine and compared it with his own memory. There was indeed a big gap.
"Of course it's different. Our family master added some ingredients. The Wang family may have advantages over us in other aspects, but in terms of the crystallization of the essence of heaven and earth, they will never surpass us." Guo Shuai said very confidently, and
Haftan fell into silence as he looked at the secret medicine.
“Are crystals of the essence of heaven and earth added to it?” Haftan’s head was blown. It’s wrong to think that there are crystals of essence of heaven and earth in this thing.
"Isn't the essence of heaven and earth contained in rice?" Guo Shuai said matter-of-factly.
"The essence in the rice can be absorbed. Don't you know how violent the essence in the heaven and earth essence crystals made by our family is?" Everyone in Haftan is numb. Guo Zhao really does whatever he wants in some aspects. If human beings
If you can absorb the essence in the essence crystal of heaven and earth, then all the members' internal energy will be separated from the body.
Of course, it's not completely impossible to absorb. For example, Lu Bu did it, but it was Lu Bu, and even after Lu Bu absorbed it, he couldn't refine it all, but released it as a big move. Can normal people be like Lu Bu? No.
.
"The secret medicine itself can strengthen the refining of the essence of heaven and earth, and after the essence of heaven and earth is combined with this secret medicine, the originally manic side will gradually be calmed down." Guo Shuai explained, "At least all the major families have
This has been determined. In essence, this secret medicine does not directly strengthen the physical fitness, but uses a special method to let the essence of heaven and earth strengthen the body."
Haftan was a little surprised when he heard this, but he had no doubts. Indeed, it is unrealistic to strengthen the heart, liver, spleen, lungs, kidneys, meridians, blood vessels, and muscles and bones to that extent if you rely on secret medicine alone. If you rely on the essence of heaven and earth, it will be even more powerful.
Somewhat reasonable.
"Does this mean that this secret medicine made by the queen is more powerful?" Haftan asked excitedly, but Guo Shuai was obviously silent after hearing this.
"It is indeed more powerful, but the side effects have not been resolved, because the secret medicine cannot completely eliminate the violent heaven and earth essence. In other words, the owner has not determined how much heaven and earth essence to add, especially the crystallized heaven and earth essence. You also know its
How huge is the true scale?" Guo Shuai said cautiously, and Haftan immediately fell silent after hearing this.
The output of a hydrogen bomb is very powerful. If a human being swallows the hydrogen bomb and controls its output with his own body, it will be even more powerful. The idea is correct, but it cannot be done!
This is no longer a question of thinking, this guy is just messing around.
"There is no secret medicine that contains the essence of heaven and earth. For us, this kind of thing is really unbearable." Haftan said with a twitching face. Even he couldn't bear this kind of nonsense.
The body's body can accept Guo Zhao's whipping, but it cannot accept the self-explosion of the essence of heaven and earth in the body. The former is called love, and the latter is called death!
"These are the only few boxes left." Guo Shuai pointed at the other boxes and said.
"What about these boxes of secret medicine with the essence of heaven and earth added to it?" Haftan roughly estimated the dosage, and then put some normal secret medicine in his arms, although there are still some differences between this stuff and what the Wang family got.
, but at least it won’t eat dead people.
"Sell it to the Xie family or the Xiao family at a higher price." As a half-housekeeper, Guo Shuai said to his uncle with some speculation. There was no need to choose anyway, it was just this uncle.
"Speaking of which, can't you get the Xie family's secret medicine?" When Haftan heard this, he remembered the elite members of the Xie family he had seen when he was a thug in Zhong Adam. They were really made of copper skin and iron bones, and had special secret skills.
After being stimulated, the body glowed with a metallic luster, and when struck twice with the weapon, it actually made a muffled sound of metal, which was even more exaggerated than the metalization in Rome.
"If it could be done, it would have been done long ago, and if it was really simple, Chen Hou would have popularized it long ago." Guo Shuai said helplessly, "But with my uncle's strength, let's go get it from the Xie family.
If you trade on the side, there will be no problem.”
Although the Xie family and the Xiao family were considered to have risen in the late Three Kingdoms, for large families, they were just like that. However, this kind of family has a long history, so there are also some strange things left. The Xie family's set of copper skins
Chen Xi had seen Tiegu's gadgets when he was in Liaodong, and had considered replicating them, but the cost was too high.
For the level of the empire, it makes no sense at all to build a scale of hundreds or thousands. In fact, even if you build a scale of tens of thousands of people, it can only be regarded as a surprise move in the battle of the empire, but not a real one.
However, since the cost of these gadgets could not be kept down, Chen Xi did not do them and just kept them as information. On the contrary, for a medium-sized family like the Xie family, having a few hundred people to take the lead was enough.
In the same way, the etched plate armor with the crystallized essence of heaven and earth made by Guo Zhao is a good thing, but at the imperial level, it is obviously useless.
In fact, this is also the reason why the Parthian Empire is so popular. It often uses weapons for decisive battles and special kills at the bottom of the box. Is the Nesting of Heart Abyss strong? It is very strong. The combat power of the ultimate dual talent is worthy of being the best in the world, but there are some problems.
From the founding of the country to the destruction of the country, there were less than twenty in total. Excluding the six or seven who founded the country and the six who destroyed the country, spreading out the rest, there are less than three things in two hundred years.
Is it powerful? It is indeed powerful, but it does not have the characteristics of military souls that can be quickly replenished, and it does not have the characteristics of a complete system after the three talent paths. It is just a top-level army, placed at the level of the empire, and there are a lot of backbones on the opposite side.
As long as you seize the opportunity, you can die.
Among the forces that can fight the imperial war, who lacks a few legions with close to 100%? Even if it is Anxi, who is rushing to the street, Kushan, who seems to be half-wasted now, which top force does not have a few tough opponents as leaders, the Anxi Empire wants to
The reason for pursuing military souls is because the Parthian Empire needs a group of guards with a score of 80%, rather than a top legion with a score of close to 100%.
The Xie family's backbone of five to six hundred scales with copper skin and iron bones, and the Imperial Guards of six to seven hundred scales inlaid with the crystallization of the essence of heaven and earth. In the battle of the empire, they would be wiped out in a single wave. No quantity is of any use.
At the level of the empire, even for verification, at least two legions are needed. A few hundred people are not even a show.
But just because it's not useful at the empire level, doesn't mean it's not useful at the aristocratic level. In fact, in Central Asia, with a few hundred backbones and a few thousand fish belly, it's almost enough.
After all, even if this place in Central Asia is outrageous, it can only last for tens of thousands of people. It is nothing like the war between empires. When it is not crazy, it can be hundreds of thousands. When it is crazy, the combined size of both sides can exceed one million, or even a border conflict.
It can have a scale of tens of thousands of people.
In this outrageous scale of war, hundreds of elites cannot take action at all. But for a native like Haftan who has never participated in a super-large-scale decisive battle since his debut, having hundreds of elites with high defense is not enough.
A very good improvement.
In the past, although the three Guo and Liuyin families were stronger than middle-class families such as the Xie family and the Xiao family, the difference in strength was not large enough for the other party to trade core materials. But now, have these muscles grown in vain?
"Don't be afraid, we are still very capable of fighting now, even better than before." Haftan said very confidently, even if it is a temporary triple smelting, it is still a challenge, and not everyone can defeat it.
In the next few days, the Guo family marched eastward and successfully arrived at the Turan Plain. However, at this time, the Tulan Plain, which was rich in water and grass, was also somewhat deserted. More than 10 billion locusts ate their way to the Turan Plain, and they conveniently brought disaster to Turan.
However, the climate in the Tulan Plain is humid these days, and after the locust plague passed through, they grew again.
"Chiyang Marquis and their fiefdoms have been in trouble." Guo Zhao looked at the grassland that had obviously been chewed up, with a serious look on his face. The locusts had all come here. Thinking about it carefully, it seemed that it would not be unreasonable to rush to Xinzhou.
Possibly, after all, we are all at the foot of Congling. After passing Congling, we enter Xinzhou.
"This place looks good." Haftan looked at the grassland touching the sky, somewhat shocked. Before the rise of the native dog in this life, he was unable to run around. After rising, he was forcibly controlled by Guo Zhao and had no chance to run around. Basically, he was in
Wandering around the hinterland of Central Asia, when Yuanfeng went to Chang'an in the sixth year of his life, it was winter again and he could not see such a magnificent scene of green grass. This time it was an eye-opener.
"Of course it's not bad. The water and grass are rich and fertile. The big river to the south is called Guishui. All the way down is the Chen family's fiefdom in Bactla. It's really enviable and has nothing to say." Guo Zhao said unhappily.
, of course this place is good, but this place is owned by an owner.
"Really?" Haftan looked at Guo Zhao in confusion, wondering why Guo Zhao was in a bad mood.
"Forget it, we can rest and relax when we get here." Guo Zhao exhaled and said, at least there is no problem with safety here.
"It's better to be careful. The impact of the locust plague is too great. There are too many people in Central Asia who are short of food. If there is no food to eat, it is possible to do anything." Haftan looked around and felt that he should be more careful. After all, he had to be careful all the way.
Going east, the closer you get to the east, the crazier the Parthian remnants from the west become. Even in the end, some Parthian remnants have obviously begun to eat meat, and their eyes are not very right when they look at people.
"Here, this is a note from Chang'an Bank. You can ask someone to find a nearby pasture, buy some cattle and sheep, eat some hot broth, have a good rest, and then continue to Xinzhou." Guo Zhao, who was tired of traveling, took it out of his sleeve.
After a stack of cashed tickets, I pulled out a few stamped with the seal of the Marquis of Zhuye Township and handed them to Haftan. I have been migrating all the way, and now I have to take it slow. Eat something good and take a rest, which can be regarded as soothing.
In the Tulan Plain near Congling, Lao Liu, who has changed his job to become a nomad, relied on the large amount of property he brought with him when running away and the efforts of more than a thousand core people to build a ranch in Tulan and live a pastoral life.
The pastoral happy life is nothing!
"Damn locusts, my pasture has been gnawed. Don't these things have natural enemies?" Lao Liu said to his technical talents in a frantic manner. He originally thought that he had run into Tulan, and the locust plague would not be so outrageous.
Maybe they rushed over, but it turned out that Lao Liu's idea was too good. The locust plague directly killed through Central Asia, rushed over all the way, and ran faster than Lao Liu.
"What we raise is already considered the natural enemy of locusts." Tian Wu said helplessly.
Lao Liu received the news about the locust plague early, and because there were few people and it was easy to eat, more than a thousand people in the core fled directly. When they were passing through Tulan Grassland, they happened to see their old brother Li Jun selling ducks. Lao Liu
Having a friendship with Li Jun, Li Jun directly gave him a reserve price and sold all the facilities near the duck farm to Lao Liu. This was considered to be a resettlement area for Lao Liu, allowing more than a thousand people to have a place to live.
.
There was no other way. After Chen Xi's advice, Li Jun realized that raising ducks and drying ducks was not as profitable as growing watermelons in low-cost land from Jincheng to Guazhou.
On the one hand, the land does not cost much, and on the other hand, the Guazhou watermelon improved by cookies is really an invincible variety. Li Jun, who has taken the lead, is almost like Kai Wushuang, leading a group of old brothers to grow melons.
Buying melons, plus the Chinese people have an innate habit that farming is more reliable than doing anything else, so after three years of growing melons, Li Jun felt it was necessary to stop all other businesses.
This year, we hired tens of thousands of acres to grow watermelons. We really didn’t have time to take care of overseas duck farms, so we came here to sell the duck farms at a low price and then absorb the money to continue growing watermelons.
In short, the situation is very good, so Lao Liu has made a big mistake and picked up a successfully operating duck farm for nothing. Moreover, Li Jun did not hide it from Lao Liu, directly saying that Brother Liu, you just need to put some people here, don't
Get rid of those technical staff, conduct inspections four times a year, and check the accounts. This duck farm can continue to operate on its own. The duck farm here is adjacent to the Aral Sea and along the Amu Darya River. There are many wild ducks coming here to hang out.
Eat food.
In Li Jun's words, don't worry about those wild ducks, and don't go out of your way to hunt wild ducks. If there is a lot of silage feed, you can feed some to the wild ducks. Anyway, domestic ducks bred to wild ducks have better physical fitness and better taste.
It's less likely to get sick. Just sow the pasture when it's in season. You don't need to take care of it too carefully. Harvesting it blindly should be enough.
In short, after a long chat, he told Lao Liu all the relatively simple and easy ways to make money, such as duck eggs, duck down, meat production, etc., and then Li Jun went back to Guazhou to continue planting melons.
At that time, Lao Liu was trying to hide in Tulan and still make some money. If that didn't work, even if the locusts were awesome, their hundreds of thousands of ducks wouldn't be without the strength to fight, so they took Li Jun's hand.
The duck farm was bought, and as Li Jun said, the duck farm was complete with all the supplies. Even some wooden equipment was left on the spot and given to Lao Liu as a gift.
After all, Li Jun also knows that in the end he will be just a little rich man, and no matter how bad the sixth brother is, he will still be a lord. With multiple brothers, there are many ways to go. In the future, there is no guarantee that his children will still be living under the sixth brother. By that time
, Talking about favors is much better than talking about interests. Besides, for this little thing, the capital has been earned long ago, and it’s all for Brother Six.
However, Li Jun didn't know what Lao Liu's real thoughts were. Lao Liu was planning to use these more than 800,000 ducks to fight the locust plague.
The result was undoubtedly a defeat. Even though they had been hybridized with the local Turan ducks for so many generations, their fighting ability was extraordinary. Even if they nibbled on some poisonous locusts, they would not be afraid. But 800,000 ducks, and the sudden arrival of
There are still eight billion locusts left in Turan, but there is still an order of magnitude difference.
As a result, Bi Laoliu felt a sudden rush in his heart. It was not a big problem for Ya Farm to lose this round. At least the forage was not eaten up. After all, the Tulan Plain was large enough and there was enough forage. The locusts were just passing through, with only eight billion in number. One day
It can only show off the food rations for more than 3 million people. The 1.5 million square kilometers of the Turan Plain can still withstand such a show.
But this is the second wave. The third wave is a real super locust plague. The scale is at least ten times the size of this wave. When the time comes, will you block it?
"How about we continue to evacuate to Xinzhou, otherwise we can evacuate to Zangzhou. I also have a few brothers in Zangzhou. I heard that there are two to three million geese there, and geese are much fiercer than ducks."
Lao Liu said to Tian Wu with a complicated expression.
"But it's hard to drive through so many ducks," Tian Wu said with some discomfort.
Lao Liu feels a little uncomfortable, being tied up here.
"Hey, I don't know when this locust plague will end." Lao Liu said rather sadly.
Headless, Sima Lang is already being beaten by locusts, but the locusts were already a little exhausted when they rushed to Xinzhou. Even if they dazzled all the way, they had already been dazzling for several months when they arrived in Xinzhou, and their life span was almost over.
.
But even if locusts with less than twenty days left in their lifespan rushed over three to four billion, it would still be a large-scale locust plague for the inexperienced Han Dynasty. After all, as long as the Han Dynasty was a normal dynasty, then
But everyone is trying hard to prevent locust plagues.
Therefore, when Sima Lang received the news that a large-scale locust plague broke out in western New South Wales, he immediately notified Chang'an. There was no other way. Before, Sima Lang would definitely have suppressed the matter first, but what he did in the past few years was too rough.
He is on Li You's blacklist. Even if Chen Xi protects him, if he continues to mess around and attracts Li You, it will be fatal.
Therefore, major events like the locust plague must be reported. Even if you report it, you may be criticized for not inspecting farm work, but this is better than Li You coming to make trouble.
"Ah, there is a locust plague in Xinzhou?" Chen Xi looked at Sima Lang's official document with a puzzled face. What is going on? Why is there no warning at all? It is said that there was such a heavy snowfall in Xinzhou last winter, so there was no possibility of a locust plague.
,Is this because of Perennis, the locusts have also evolved?
Chen Xi did not consider the possibility of a locust plague in East Africa. After all, this was the second wave. Even if it was against the sky, it should not be able to fly to the border of the Han Dynasty. If the second wave could fly to the border of the Han Dynasty, then the third wave would not be able to fly to the border of the Han Dynasty.
Rushing to Chang'an to open Chen Xi's eyes? How is this possible?
"Send a group of professionals to Xinzhou to investigate." Li You suggested. After the authority to assess officials was taken away, Li You's words were not as outrageous as when Lu Sucai fell.
